31. Chapter 31 Silver Reward
Author: Next door Lao Huang 007
In the evening, it was the county magistrate who took Mr. Jingmo to Songjiazhuang, saying that he was looking for a sister-in-law who was a roaster. Yiren bought melon seeds, peanuts and golden chestnuts at home, and also made an agreement with Qiu to buy from him every month.
Buy it, so Songshan naturally knows that the person who is doing the speculating is Yiren.
He didn't care about this matter at first, thinking about what kind of business a woman could do! Besides, is it easy to make roasted seeds and nuts? If it was easy to make, it wouldn't be her turn to make money, and melon seeds, golden chestnuts and stuff like that could be found all over the mountains and plains.
yes!
It wasn't until the county magistrate came with this unknown Jingmo master that he had to pay attention to it.
That county magistrate is someone I have never seen even a few times in my half-life as a village mayor! Yi Ren’s food is definitely good! Song Shan couldn’t help but feel excited.
In the blink of an eye, I saw my wife Qiu who was accompanying Yi Ren. I felt that it was because of the relationship between Qiu and Yi Ren that their family got the job of collecting the raw materials for roasted seeds and nuts. Otherwise, Yi Ren would make everyone in the village the same! The look of her parents was real
The Song Ting and Li family, who are not very reliable but have a good relationship with Yi Ren, have always taken good care of Yi Ren, and Yi Ren didn't even look for them!
For a time, he began to pay more attention to his wife, and no longer ignored her and was tired of it.
"Sister-in-law, the master of my house has tasted your fried golden chestnuts and praised them very much. He wants five hundred kilograms. We will set off tomorrow afternoon. Can my sister-in-law make it?"
Everyone looked at Yi Ren expectantly.
Yixin was very happy: five hundred catties, according to the price given to Desheng Restaurant, one catty is seven cents, which is three to two and five cents! One step closer to repairing the house!
For a moment, Yiren seemed to have seen the white money!
But he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he frowned and said softly: "Master Jingmo, I have three points to explain to you. First, fried golden chestnuts with sugar are more delicious when hot. It can also be cold, but it cannot be stored for a long time.
Now is the full moon, and it can be stored for three days at most. You want 500 kilograms, which can be consumed within three days?"
"Although my sister-in-law is a businessman, she does not pursue self-interest, so she deserves a courtesy from Jingmo!" After saying this, Jingmo bowed and handed over his hands, feeling full of respect for this woman who had lost her husband and raised her children alone. "But my family has a large population.
A hundred catties is really nothing, it is enough to be consumed in one day."
"Then I'm relieved!" After receiving the gift, Yiren also felt that Jingmo was not a stickler for rules, unlike many men in this era who discriminated against women, but they actually had a good conversation, and continued with a smile: "The second point,
Even though it’s late at night, I only have thirty kilograms of golden chestnuts at home, and I need stone honey for frying, so I don’t have enough at home..."
This is indeed a very difficult thing to do. At this time, there is already a curfew, and all the rice, flour, grain and oil stores in the town and county must be closed. It doesn't matter if you are the king of heaven.
Jingmo looked at the man with the goatee, and the man said respectfully: "The county office has stone honey in stock, but this golden chestnut..." The man frowned in confusion.
Under Qiu's constant hints, Song Shan said tentatively: "My lords, because Yiren and my wife discussed the purchase of golden chestnuts a few days ago, my family has 200 kilograms of golden chestnuts." Song Shan was afraid of that.
A Jingmo gentleman misunderstood that he was collaborating with Yi Ren to deceive him, so he explained first before mentioning the hoarding of golden chestnuts.
"That's still three hundred pounds less!" Goatee County Magistrate frowned.
Mrs. Qiu stretched out her hand again and tugged at the corner of Song Shan's clothes, but Song Shan was confused and didn't know why. She was also worried that the county magistrate and the adult would see her being pulled by the corner of her clothes by the lady in public. What would she say? So her face turned red.
Hongdi pulled out the corner of his clothes with all his strength.
Qiu anxiously stretched out her hand to grab her again, and Song Shan moved away again...
The two of them went back and forth for several rounds, and Yi Ren saw it in her eyes and felt angry in her heart. She was angry with Qiu Shi for being submissive, and angry with Song Shan for being loyal and stupid.
Yiren finally said, "Auntie, do you have any good ideas?" She couldn't help but give Qiu a step forward.
Qiu's blushing face seemed to be dripping with blood. She did not dare to look up and stammered: "A few days ago, I talked with the villagers and agreed to collect their golden chestnuts. So. So."
Seeing her "so" for a long time, Yiren had no idea what to say, so she continued: "Uncle and aunt are willing to miss the night to help buy it? The price is easy to negotiate!"
Qiu is kind and has received favors from her, so she is not willing to raise the price any more. "No, no. We have agreed on the price!"
"Mrs. Muramasa is really thoughtful!" Jingmo praised with a smile.
The goatee-bearded county magistrate also stroked his beard and nodded. "Song Cun is marrying a good wife!"
Listening to the praises of the two adults, Song Shan was a little stunned. It was as if he had seen the beauty of his wife for the first time in these years. He looked at her up and down, and felt some pity for this lady who was much younger than him. But he was facing Shang Qiu.
His eyes made the two of them blush again.
"Yes, yes, thank you for the compliments, sir!" Song Shan said with a blushing smile.
"What about the third thing? Sister-in-law." Jingmo asked Yiren.
"Roasting golden chestnuts with sugar is a physical job. I'm pregnant, and I have only one person to do it. I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it!" Yiren paused for a while, saw Jingmo and Goatee frowning, and then continued. "But auntie
My two natal brothers once helped me with the work. If my aunt is willing to work hard for my two brothers, they will definitely be able to do it!"
"Yes! Yes! I'll call you right now!" Mrs. Qiu's eyes burst into tears after hearing what Yiren said. She knew that Yiren was here to help her and her parents' family. Not to mention the wages for this trip, it was just fried gold and chestnuts with sugar.
How can I teach others my skills casually?
"Auntie, please slow down, it's late at night, don't disturb the rest of the neighbors!" Yiren reminded her. Although Qiu had a weak personality, she had a smart mind. She immediately understood what Yiren meant. She was reminding her not to cause trouble.
Everyone knows.
"Okay, that's all settled. I'll wait for someone to pick it up tomorrow afternoon!" Jingmo saw that the matter was finished and didn't want to delay. "Here are twelve liang, sister-in-law, keep it!"
"This...I don't have any money to ask you. Why don't you bring me the right amount tomorrow?" Now the wife is in embarrassment. All her wealth is not enough to give him change!
"The rest will be rewarded with silver. It's not easy for my sister-in-law." Jingmo waved his hand, and the ten taels of silver notes fell into Yiren's hands.
Song Shan and his wife saw off several people, thinking in their hearts that Yiren has become so prosperous now that even the county magistrate has to respect her as a noble person, what kind of status does she have! Even noble people like to eat her stir-fried golden chestnuts! Thinking about that again
The ten taels of silver notes that people throw away casually, what is this if it is not developed?
For the first time, Song Shan held Qiu's hand and walked all the way. He said halfway: "Yiren, this girl's craftsmanship is really amazing. The things she makes are all new and innovative, and they are also appreciated by noble people. From now on, you will be able to
Hang out with her more!"
"That's natural! Yi Ren thinks of me in everything!" Qiu smiled sweetly and proudly.
Song Shan looked at his beloved wife who was twenty years younger than him, and remembered that in the past, his children had bullied her, and his mother had exploited her, but he had turned a blind eye, and he felt a little regretful. She was still so young, and she married an old man, and her eldest son was older than her.
No matter how old she is, she doesn't know how long she can live. She is still so smart. Although she has a soft personality, she can understand everything and is even clearer than Muramasa, who has been with him for many years.
